The Benefits of Eco-Friendly Lifts

With the planet suffering at our
hands, we all have a duty to reduce the amount of energy that we use. After
all, the first world has become accustomed to a certain way of living and this
means that we are using more energy than ever before. Here at Elevators Ltd, we
believe that it is possible to become eco-conscious without sacrificing modern
developments like the humble elevator. Read on to find out a few benefits of an
environmentally friendly lift…

Modern Features

An elevator that has been designed
with the environment in mind tends to come with a variety of high-quality
modern features. For example, our eco-friendly lifts come with VVVF control
which means that the motors use something called a ‘drive controller’ feature in
order to implement variable speed and voltage and ensure that a suitable amount
of energy is used for the load in question.

Saves Energy

The main focus of eco-friendly
elevators is to save and conserve energy. After all, energy waste is why elevators
can have such a negative impact on the environment. In fact, that is why our
environmentally friendly lifts are fitted with something known as regenerative
overlay; this means that any excess energy is relayed back into the grid so
that it can be repurposed elsewhere in the building rather than being wasted.

Cost Effective

There is no denying that
eco-friendly elevators are a much more expensive investment than a regular
passenger elevator. With this said, it is important to remember that saving energy
can actually help property owners save money in the long term and this makes
them a cost-effective purchase. For example, these elevators come with a
stand-by mode which shuts down the lighting, ventilation and indictor systems
when the cab is not in use.

When it comes to energy
consumption, it is easy to see that elevators use a considerable amount. After
all, the mechanical features and lighting all need to be accounted for.
Luckily, eco-friendly elevators can give back more than what is invested over
time in order to repurpose the energy that would usually be lost as a
by-product. To find out more information about our green elevators, get in
